Safety information

Important

Use only approved tools and test equipment. Some hand tools have handles covered with a soft material that does not insulate you when working with live electrical currents.

Many customers have, near their equipment, rubber floor mats that contain small conductive fibers to decrease electrostatic discharges. Do not use this type of mat to protect yourself from electrical shock.

vFind the room emergency power-off (EPO) switch, disconnecting switch, or electrical outlet. If an electrical accident occurs, you can then operate the switch or unplug the power cord quickly.

vDo not work alone under hazardous conditions or near equipment that has hazardous voltages.

vDisconnect all power before:

–Performing a mechanical inspection

–Working near power supplies

–Removing or installing Field Replaceable Units (FRUs)

vBefore you start to work on the machine, unplug the power cord. If you cannot unplug it, ask the customer to power-off the wall box that supplies power to the machine, and to lock the wall box in the off position.

vIf you need to work on a machine that has exposed electrical circuits, observe the following precautions:

–Ensure that another person, familiar with the power-off controls, is near you.

Attention: Another person must be there to switch off the power, if necessary.

–Use only one hand when working with powered-on electrical equipment; keep the other hand in your pocket or behind your back.

Attention: An electrical shock can occur only when there is a complete circuit. By observing the above rule, you may prevent a current from passing through your body.

–When using testers, set the controls correctly and use the approved probe leads and accessories for that tester.

–Stand on suitable rubber mats (obtained locally, if necessary) to insulate you from grounds such as metal floor strips and machine frames.

Observe the special safety precautions when you work with very high voltages; Instructions for these precautions are in the safety sections of maintenance information. Use extreme care when measuring high voltages.

vRegularly inspect and maintain your electrical hand tools for safe operational condition.

vDo not use worn or broken tools and testers.

vNever assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit. First, check that it has been powered off.

vAlways look carefully for possible hazards in your work area. Examples of these hazards are moist floors, nongrounded power extension cables, power surges, and missing safety grounds.

vDo not touch live electrical circuits with the reflective surface of a plastic dental mirror. The surface is conductive; such touching can cause personal injury and machine damage.
